Evaluation of the cementite morphology influence on the hydrogen induced crack nucleation and propagation path in carbon steels by Shabnam Karimi (19457575)

“…<p>The effect of cementite morphology on the crack initiation and growth path was studied using in situ electrochem-ical micro-cantilever bending (ECCB) technique under hydrogen (H) charging. Two carbon steels with lamellar cementite morphology (pearlitic microstructure) and spherical or broken lamellas cementite morphology (spheroidite microstructure), both with approximately the same carbon equivalent, were used in this study. …”
